Angry Birds games have a long and complicated history. The original was a huge hit, but each successive attempt felt less interesting. The few times Rovio has branched out have been... not awesome. Angry Birds Transformers, however, is unexpectedly entertaining.

In this title, the birds and pigs have been transformed into Autobots and Decepticons, respectively. In each level your chosen Transformer runs through the level while you tap on objects in the background for him or her to blast. The goal is to take out all the pigs by knocking over the towers, just like in traditional Angry Birds, but you've only got a limited time to peck away at the supports with lasers as you run (or roll) past. The transforming aspect comes into play when you need to speed up to avoid being smashed by something.

This is a free-to-play game, so of course there are plenty of in-app purchases to deal with. They start at $4.99 and go all the way up to $99.90. What do you get? Extra crystals to skip upgrade times. I can't say for sure how necessary that's going to be as you progress in the game, but hopefully not terrible. I'm not saying you should definitely play Angry Birds Transformers, just that you should not avoid it like the plague. I mean, look at this neat 80s-style Transformers animation at the beginning of the game.

No thanks. Been down the Rovio path before, never again - at least not until they offer paid alternatives with absolutely no ads and IAP.

i got the no-ad version of the first angry birds from the amazon AOTD and i prefer that primarily because its my 2yr old that likes to play angry birds and he often gets caught in the ads or buy-this-upgrade buttons and ill have to back him out of it. Ill download this just to see how he does with it but i personally have always despised angry birds in general and would never have anything to do with it if it werent for my kid.

Root and download Xposed Framework. Get LBE from their website, it's in Chinese but you download the translate from exposed for LBE and it updates all the time. Just not the Google Play version.

Chinese on Privacy , mother of Irony/ Irony level: over 9000. there goes my interest on LBE. better try XPrivacy. even if LBE is not a app , i would refuse to use an app who does not shows any interest to update their App.

Hello Astrotrain. I've missed you.

Matthew Fry

YES! I saw that and grinned.

They had their time, now they make shit games, it's sad, but that's how our lovely world works.

Who spends $99.90 on these things? I can't fathom that. I've watched the prices of IAP in various games and I'm always astounded. I'd actually be more likely to buy stuff if they didn't charge $50-100 for a reasonable amount of in-game "stuff." I think others would, too. I imagine if a typical pack of cards, or whatever, was $2 instead of $10, a lot more of us would buy them instead of writing off purchases altogether, and they'd make MORE money. Also, we'd enjoy the game more because it would be affordable to play.

As a devout Transformers fan, who can spend hundreds of dollars on small, plastic toys, you can very that I'll pay... NOTHING for this game. I don't trust Rovio anymore, as they went from a company that card about customers, and "transformed" into some mobile garbage/mobage-styled shadow of Shamesoft.

Unfortunately it usually works out that higher prices on these make more profit. Not sure who is buying them but someone is.

Some people blame kids, but who in their right mind gives a young kid unlimited access to a credit card tied to a tablet?

The ones that don't want to both with their off-spring. Easy babysitter.

And the things you unlock with so much money is basically a "chest", which destroys any challenge. Pay to win games are basically "pay to not play".

So they became Gameloft IAP developer now. Man I miss their games when you only had to pay a dollar and get all the levels without waiting or crystal-like crap.

I miss those times when I had a non-smartphone phone, without Android and had Gameloft java enabled games, with no IAP, Ads... Nothing. Just a single purchase and you got some hours of fun. Man, it was such a great company, it's such a shame they became this greedy.

Ricardo Contreras

If you miss those times so much sell your smartphone and get a feature phone. Problem solved.

rolo143

Nah. :)

Or just support the great premium games that also have support for demos and hardware controller support.

For this game, the Autobots and Decepticons fight together against egg robot thingies...except the decepticon pigs are also the enemies, so even that official explanation is bunkum.

It's just a way for kids to buy more figures to use in the game. Not a great way, though.

So it's even lamer then i thought

BuckNaked78

Because Kids these days don't care for the low-budget (high back then) crap we loved as a kid. Sadly, I've felt the same too, the A-Teams were ok, passed on the G.I. Joes and Transformers (as a IT professional and all round Geek/Nerd) I passed on as well, except the first one, I saw that one.

this is better than the movies

Every thing is beter than the movies.

Staring at a wall for 2 hours is better than the movies.

How much more raping will this franchise suffer before rovio finally drops AB for good?

BuckNaked78

As much raping as a raping company can do, I would suppose.
They'll beat it down 1000 times more than one will beat a dead horse.
